creep up behind him (bequiet!)
strike with precision (medulla oblongata)
shake hands with your reaper friend,
you're not so useless after all!

(too late; that moment of folly.
now you're gone, lost)

or are you? stupid fool!
you can return to your new home.
chat with persephone and charion.

Author's Note: This has to be one of my most confusing pieces. It's inspired by Shakespeare's Othello and Agatha Christie's Curtain: Poirot's Last Case and is basically a much-less-subtle description of the killing methods of Iago and Norton. I apologise for the extensive use of cross-referencing ). The Boy Called It is this story about a boy who is abused by his mother verbally and physically and somehow menaged to survive, the apple refers to Adam and Eve, the medulla oblongata is this spot in your head that contains all your nerve centers, Persephone and Charion are from Greek mythology and Iago's from Othello.
